Dear Jackson, I hope you’re well. I’m just writing to thank you for your enthusiasm and for taking care of me when I was on my holiday at your place. It was the first time I visited

such

a lovely city. I appreciate that you sacrificed some annual leaves to take me around, and you even asked Jane for accompanying me shopping. I’m pleased to tell you that I enjoyed every minute, but I love the view of Golden Gate Bridge the most. I had read some articles and watched films about it, and it was emotional to see it in my eyes. The bridge was majestic and breathtaking but charming and romantic too. You said you would have a long vacation next January, right? I’d like to see you and Jane here

then

. That will be the lunar new year here in Vietnam, so you and your wife can experience traditional Tet, and I will bring you guys to some hot spots here. I’m sure you guys will have a great time. Help me to say thank you to Jane too and hope to see you guys

then

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

Some people say that you can learn more about another country by watching television programmes and films about it than by actually visiting it. How true is this statement? Is there anything you can learn about another country by visiting it that you cannot learn by watching progammes and films about it? Give reasons for your answers and include any revelant examples from your own experience.
It is believed that learning about foreign cultures through television shows and films is more effective than going directly to other countries. In my opinion, I suppose the statement is wrong in some aspects. And there are a few things that holidaymakers can explore beyond their homes that viewers cannot just by looking at the screen.
